here). I may have to get a new helmet!

I am helmet shopping and I see both of these are now available. Amazon has them. Pricey, at $225 for the Lazer http://www.amazon.com/Lazer-Helium-H...238075&sr=1-33 
and $250 for the Giro

My current helmet, which is getting old and ratty, is a Giro. I like the fit of the Giro so I must have an oblong head, eh? Anyone know how the Lazer fits as compared to a Giro?
I am also thinking of a less roadie and less expensive helmet, I believe it is the Giro Xar, mislabeled on Amazon as the Hex.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...=ATVPDKIKX0DER
